I'm thinking of doing the EBC Yellowstuff pads as well as they look like one of the best options for a dual purpose car. In the limited miles you have done, is there any indication that they won't hold up on the track?

Why yellows instead of reds?

Back when I had stock calipers I ran Yellows and loved them.

I just ordered a set of Yellowstuff front and rear pads so I'll provide some updates once I get some miles on them.

A LOT of guys on my local forum use EBC pads and it appears they upgrade to oranges for the fronts for road/track day duties before moving on to other brand pads with higher heat capacity. From what I can tell the yellows are excellent for daily use and the occasional canyon carving duties. They also seem to last the distance without chewing through stock rotors.
